    With its new title, this could become the most popular thread in Cake Stop. Ever. :smiley:

    I was thinking similar. Is it possible to amalgamate the Brexit, coronavirus, covid masks in shops, Donald Trump, and Edward Colston threads under this title?
    Apart from Edward Colston, those threads have mostly all stuck remarkably well to their title subject.
    It was more a comment about the general whingeing that went on in those threads, usually at the expense of people who aren't comfortably off, liberal professionals.
    Mo money mo problems or something, right?
    I was thinking more along the lines of "Let them eat cake" or not understanding somebody else's sh1tty situation because you're so remote from it. Is that what your song means?
    On a less taking the p!ss note - stop voting for parties who ideologically are relaxed about increase inequality if that actually bothers you.
    I'm not going to get into a debate about how we level society up because I'm pretty sure you wouldn't agree with my proposals on how best to achieve this. My whinge is against the Marie Antoinettes on the forum. Let's call them the "let them eat cakestoppers".

    I think shortfall is more likely to be looking for a party to vote for that takes a harder line against condescending online comments.
    Cut nose spite etc.

    Take a look at the leak of Priti Patel's proposal re asylum seekers.

    She's actually trying to govern to 'own the libs'.

    Can't disagree with that. Those who think where you are in life is purely down to hard work and nothing to do with where you started.

    Kind of ironic that the OP changed the thread title because he was upset at it going off topic and since the title change it has been totally derailed.

    [Serious whinge alert]

    TBH, this whole tit for tat is getting so tedious, predictable and repetitive.
    It's the same protagonists post after post shouting from their respective (and entrenched) soap box's.
    And now unfortunately, this thread will disappear from my bookmarked list too.
    Plus, we've gone from over moderation to a complete lack of moderation.
